CWE-401

Description

A memory leak in the spi_gpio_probe() function in drivers/spi/spi-gpio.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering devm_add_action_or_reset() failures, aka CID-d3b0ffa1d75d. NOTE: third parties dispute the relevance of this because the system must have already been out of memory before the probe began

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 4.17 < 5.4.7) • linux linux kernel 5.5 • fedoraproject fedora 30 • fedoraproject fedora 31
